January Wrap Up and Smalls SAL...

I hope everybody is having a great January and yippee, it is Friday! (Can never be sad on a Friday!) :0)

As for me, I have been extremely busy with work, which is both terrific and crappy at the same time...

...it is terrific, because it means lots of extra funds for my stitchy stuff, but crappy, because I don't get a lot of time to actually stitch. (Painting, distressing and packing jars takes a lot of time away from my cross stitch stuff.)

Luckily, I have gotten some time to stitch, so I have some updates to share...

First, I finished Princess Jasmine's portrait...

Love how this one came out...

...can't wait to actually frame it.

Up next, I finished the piece I started for the Monthly Magazine SAL...

It turned out very cute and I am hoping to make it into a little pillow.

(I received a sewing machine from Santa for Christmas, so I am hoping to learn how to use it enough, that I can make a few pillow ornaments with my cross stitching.)

I have started working on a neat little project...

...it is a temperature block sampler.

I've decided to make this for my aunt for Christmas, so this represents the temperatures in Houghton, MI.

It is fun project and I look forward to seeing the color patterns that come through as it is stitched.

(You can find the pattern for the temperature blocks at Stitchnmomma on Etsy.)
